Uni-Coat Mixing and Tinting Guide
Working with ratios like 8:1 or counting how many drops you have accidentally added to your to topcoat can be difficult and frustrating so we have a set of programs that will do the math for you.
The numbers the programs give you are the same for American fluid ounces (fl oz) and metric milliliters (mL). They are also correct if you are measuring resin and hardener by weight whether in grams or ounces.
Just so you know: 20 drops = 1 mL; 30 mL = 1 fluid ounce For example 240 mL = 8 fl oz.
